Family[]

Ex-wife: Rhiannon Curtis

  • Topanga also had a sister named Nebula Lawrence, presumably meant to be a full sister, but she was a continuity error in the show, as she was never mentioned following season 1. She no longer exists.

In-laws: Rosie McGee (ex-mother-in-law), Prudence Curtis (ex-sister-in-law), Cory Matthews (son-in-law)

Grandchildren: Riley Matthews (granddaughter) and Auggie Matthews (grandson)

Notes[]

Jedidiah Lawrence is the only character to be portrayed by three different actors.

As Rhiannon's mother was born in the early 1940's, based on what Topanga said in No Guts, No Cory, Jedediah's parents were the ones who were engaged on December 7, 1941.
